The Luc Cholot wines are the result of a successful and fruitful transmission of knowledge from one generation to the next, a blending of wisdom and youth. For more than twenty years, Luc Pirlet has been a famous and successful winemaker in the Languedoc. At age sixty, proud of his accomplishments, but eager to spend more time with his family, Monsieur Pirlet has passed on his experience, knowledge, and passion for winemaking. Christopher Cholot spent a few years in marketing before deciding to go back to his roots in farming and becoming a vintner. The two men, who met in 2013, were kindred spirits and were both looking for new challenges. They worked side by side for two years, and in 2015, the first vintage of Luc Cholot wines were bottled. Salud.
The red Wine of the Month is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Languedoc region of southeast France. This wine enjoys a traditional, but fairly long fermentation to extract maximum color and aroma. Malolactic fermentation continues in the oak casks, about one-third of which is new. The color is a deep, dark, but brilliant garnet. Hints of vanilla can be detected overlying ripe, fruity aromas. The background aromatics offer complex notes of leather and cedar. It is medium-bodied with finely balanced tannins. Enjoy this Cab with barbecues, steaks, lamb chops, or Mexican dishes.
This wine is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes grown in the Corbières region, near the city of Carcassone, France, and it is unoaked. Chardonnay is fond of the hot Mediterranean sun. Here it has a paler color than its Burgundian brethren, and offers a delicate alliance of fruity and floral aromas. It is pale straw in color with golden tints. The bouquet is complex, redolent of almonds, peaches, and acacia. On the palate, this wine offers harmonious balance with tightly wound acidity and a fresh and fruity finish. Can be enjoyed as an elegant aperitif and ideally accompanies sea food and grilled fish.
